Documentation for modified -new- QRF model

Background

This is the skeleton rmd outlining the development of a revised (“new”) QRF model (See et al. 2021). This will eventually highlight the covariate selection process, QRF model fit, the RF extrapolation model, and finally compare extrapolation estimates between the original and new models for eight watersheds within the Upper Salmon Basin.

Covariate selection

Explain covariate selection process. DASH/resto compatible, high MIC, low correlation, missing data, lots of zeros, species specific models, and eventually converting to joint models.

QRF Model fit

Talk about relative importance and pdp plots.

Extrapolation model

Talk about GAA’s

Extrapolation comparison

Extrapolations of habitat capacity for Chinook salmon, by life-stage, within the North Fork Salmon watershed.

Change in predicted habitat capacity for Chinook salmon compared to the previous extrapolation, by life-stage, within the North Fork Salmon watershed.

Extrapolations of habitat capacity for steelhead, by life-stage, within the North Fork Salmon watershed..

Change in predicted habitat capacity for steelhead compared o the previous extrapolation, by life-stage, within the North Fork Salmon watershed..

QRF Habitat Capacity Estimates

Chinook Salmon

Estimated available habitat for juvenile summer rearing Chinook salmon in the eight salmon watershed.
